This is a sweet little place. The host has used her care and talents to transform what at its core was a plain room in a concrete building, into something that feels human and welcoming.
Everything was well-maintained and very clean
The host was super-responsive to the few issues that came up. For example, when I wasn't able to turn on the air conditioner, our host diagnosed the problem and had someone with fresh batteries for the remote in less than 10 minutes after I contacted her. Wow!
The only drawback to the apartment for me was lack of outside air. The window isn't screened and as such should not be opened. I don't have enough experience with Thailand to know whether it's common to expect budget apartments have this feature. However, it was easy to keep the apartment cool with the air conditioner, which is modern and quiet.
We grew fond of this apartment's neighborhood. Beside being convenient to Don Mueang International Airport, Bangkok rapid transit options, lots of shopping and tons of great street food, a very large city park is a half hour walk to the south, and even faster to reach via the new elevated subway train.
Located about 2 blocks down a side street from a major city thoroughfare, it was amazing how quiet and peaceful our little apartment was.
